: PRESS QUOTES
"CD TIPP !! Griffige Songstrukturen und Refrains zum Mitsingen im Stil teutonischer Groesssen wie Kreator gehoeren zu den festen Trademarks. Songs wie das schneidende Attack Of The Insidious Invader oder der kleine Hit The Abominable Master Gruesmome gehen also direkt ins Ohr. 13/15" - Legacy Magazine
"Mal schleppend melodioes mit herrlichem Groove, mal aggressiv und wuchtig nach vorne preschend... beide Thrash-Daumen nach oben... 8.5/10" - Powermetal
"Schon jetzt eines der Highlights des noch jungen Jahres... 9.5/10" - Obliveon
: BIOGRAPHY
Scarlet Anger is a Luxembourgish Thrash Metal band, founded in 2007 by vocalist Joe Block and guitarist Fred Molitor. Their first gigs were followed quite quickly by the release of a first EP, called La Realidad Es Triste…, whose successor Kill The King made the band noticeable on an international level for the first time.
Being more aggressive and fast than its predecessor, Kill The King didn’t just earn a lot of critical acclaim but also gained the attention of the German label Dust On The Tracks. This led to a world wide record deal for the first album Dark Reign, which was mastered by Jeff Waters and released by Dust On The Tracks in May 2012. Scarlet Anger presented their new album on numerous small and established festivals like the Durbuy Rock Festival and the Extremefest.
In between their shows, Scarlet Anger started gathering first ideas for the successor to Dark Reign. Classic eighties and nineties comics and horror stories served as their main inspiration for what would later become their second album Freak Show. Mastered by Jens Bogren, the new album has a more melodic approach. It was released on March 18th 2016 via Haensel and Gretel – MIG Music.
